History of integrated circuit development

1) The development history of integrated circuit, based on time and computing power as the main axis of continuous development, the human brain computing capacity of 100 billion times per second, 60 years after the invention of integrated circuit, 100 billion times higher, changed the way of human life.
2) The development trend of computing: mainframe — minicomputer — personal computer — desktop Internet — mobile Internet — Internet of Things — artificial intelligence autonomous driving. The Internet of Things, from processing electrical signals to physical quantities that the world can sense. Moving from computers to full system control will require much more computing and memory power, comparable to that of the human brain. All development is inseparable from the development of the chip, the most important is performance improvement, volume reduction, function improvement, cost reduction.
3) The main reason for the development of integrated circuit technology is the continuous reduction of minimum (characteristic) size, which is the result of continuous improvement and performance improvement of semiconductor equipment.
